An interview this evening on a local channel once more hightlighted for Ms Ris Low unfortunately that she should have not tried to defend herself and stayed out of the camera’s lens – – her replacement in the Miss Singapore World speaks english well and bakes – – and is a GOOD girl.

SINGAPORE: Former Miss Singapore World Ris Low has clarified comments in media reports where she said stealing credit cards was fun.

Speaking to Channel NewsAsia in an exclusive interview, Ms Low said her actions were the result of her bipolar disorder.

The beauty queen gave up her crown last month after it was revealed that she was convicted of credit card fraud.

She said she has learnt a lot from the saga and that despite the bad publicity, she remains positive in life.

She said: “I don’t mean that stealing credit cards was fun. But the thrill that I felt – the feeling that I got from stealing credit cards was there. That was what I was trying to explain. But it’s not that I am encouraging young people to steal credit cards or anything like this.
